Cattle.

The receipts of cattle were light yesterday
there being only twenty-four loads in as
against sixty-two on Monday. The market
was devoid of especially new features, values
remaining very much the same. The market
has decided tendency to drag and the de-
mand is not very heavy or active for any
kind of cattle. There was fair representa-
tion Of corn-fed cattle in the yards and that
class OF cattle constituted the bulk Of sales
One load of fancy heavy natives brought
&75, with one exception the highest price
paid this season. The supply of range feed
ers Is falling Off, and those sold yesterday
were fully up to previous prices. Butchers
stock remains unchanged.

Science Hall Farmers, Alliance.

THIS alliance holds its regular meetings
on the first and third Saturday in each
month. At almost every meeting since this
Alliance has been organized, we have initi-
ated from one to half a dozen, until now its
membership has reached the respectable
number of tifty-eight working members,
The subject of cooperative stores has
frequently been discussed in our Alliance,
and the result of which shows that our AL
ljaaee is disposed to act with precaution in
the matter.
At our last meeting, the 10Th inst, a mo-
ton was unanimously carried to appoint
committee to confer with merchants and
ascertain the best terms that any reliable
merchant would furnish goods to this ALI
auce for, Mt either retail or wholesale prices.
Our Pres, M. S. Ward; Lecturer, E. H.
Phinney, and Business Agent, W. L.
Franks, constitute that committee. So
look out, merchants, when you see these
men coming around, for they are business
men, and will mean nothing but business
when they approach you on the subject.
Our Alliance has taken in almost the entire
neIghborhood of Science Hall, and our
trade ought to be worth something to the
merchant, even at small margin. Our
aim in this direction is to better our finan-
c,al condition by asking nothing but what
